Post chat(04/07/19) Positivity

Former Member

Hey folks! chat was a difficult one tonight because of no SC, so i thought i'd make this after chat to just give you some links, give you some positivity and be here for a chin wag basically

i've not put this in positivity corner in case anyone needs a ramble or some basic board support, as per usual all guidelines apply, we can offer some basic support and i can even signpost to services or find some things to help. hope you're well

(Reminder, no talking about what happened in chat tonight, just anything that is bothering you personally like you would on the boards x)

At the moment I am using the calm app - it’s fab. Sometimes I look at the calming scenes and sounds stuff ... sometimes I listen to the sleep story.... but atm I’m using the breathing thing a lot. It basically tells u when to inhale, hold, exhale to help u feel calmer
